I've read and heard on the news that the flu vaccine that is available is ineffective against the strain of flu that is currently hitting us.... yet everyone is panicing to get the flu shot?
Am I missing something? |

what i heard was that the more serious type may not be affected by the innoculation, but the more standard variations are.
